LEATHER TILES AND MOSAICS INSTALLATION GUIDE

SELF ADHESIVE TAPE – PEEL AND STICKJust grab your tile, peel, stick and hold for a while for permanent adhesion- Sort the tiles with self adhesive tape to help you apply them easy direct to the wall. -Since self adhesive is very strong and one-time use, do not press the tile to the wall until you are certain that perfect placement has been achieved. Each time the adhesive touches a surface, tile re-positioning or reaplication, the strenght of the adhesive deteriorates itself, a new adhesive layer should be used.- Press the tile firmly against the wall for a couple of minutes to activate the adhesive and create a permanent bond.

DIRECT CONTACT GLUEAlthough our self adhesive tape should be enough for a permanent installation, depending on final destination wall surface and environment conditions, we recommend to use contact glue for a perfect and long lasting adhesion.

- Simple apply the contact glue with a spray gun, scrapper or brush on both surfaces, wall and backside of the tile. - Wait few minutes until the glue becomes tacky - Place the tile carefully on the wall and hold it for a while until if full adheres, pressing firmly all sides of the tile.

GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDE HANDLING INSTRUCTIONSRECOMMENDATIONS

Installing and checking wall surface- Peel, stick and press each tile firmly against the wall for a while to activate the adhesive and make a strong bond, otherwise a weak bond may occur.- Apply tiles only on smooth, flat, rigid, non-flexible surfaces. - Repair cracks, fill joints and wall imperfections to get a flat, even surface.- Wall surface must be clean of debris, dust, moisture or any other materials.- Remove any loose, flaking paint and/old wall coverings before installing.- Paint must be completely dried before atempting to fix the tiles. Consider that dark coated paints take longer to set.- Color the wall surface matching the tiles in order to mask any peek-through associated with tiles- Draw sketch lines on the wall based on tiles measurements and place each tile on its place following the design/pattern, do not rely on just butting tiles together.

- Unpack your tiles once arrived for inspection and do not keep in storage for long period of time.
